Used Ford Pickups
When it comes to pickup trucks, Ford is one of the best selling manufacturers for a reason: they offer so many options and combinations that every buyer can find exactly what they need.
- Do you want a comfortable, luxurious vehicle for highway commuting?
- Are you looking for a work truck that can also fit your family?
- Do you want both the utility of a pickup truck as well as reasonable fuel economy?
- Are you interested in a vehicle that will stand up to outdoor adventure and off-roading?
- Or, do you need something that will handle heavy payloads and towing?
Well, Ford has a pickup for every one of these situations, and more! If you need it, Ford has it - from the compact Ranger, to the number one selling F-150, the competent F-250, or the powerful F-350.
Ford Ranger: This compact pickup is reasonably priced and is considered to be one of the most fuel efficient trucks on the road today. While it is popular with small businesses, its cramped interior and lack of passenger room makes it a poor choice as a family vehicle. The Ranger is not available with the CrewCab option, and the SuperCab only has two inward facing jumpseats that fold down, making them most suitable for young children. This truck is fairly capable off-road and will give you the utility of a truck at an affordable price.
Ford F-150: Ford's best selling vehicle has been in production for over 60 years and has proven itself to be both a great work and family truck. With ten trim levels, four powertrain options, three cab styles, and three bed lengths, the F-150 can be customized to suit every need. Models with the SuperCab or SuperCrew Cab will seat 6 adults comfortably, with plenty of leg and headroom. Best in class towing and payload, combined with upscale options, means that buyers can have the best of both worlds. Considered to be one of the most affordable full-sized trucks on the used vehicle market, the F-150 is a nice option for those looking for something bigger than the Ranger but smaller than the SuperDuty models.
Ford F-250: If you are looking for a vehicle with high payload and towing capacities, then the F-250 is right for you. As with all F-Series pickups, it is available in three body styles with several powertrain and trim level options, offering consumers everything from the practical base XL model to the ultra-luxurious King Ranch.
Ford F-350: With its dual rear wheel setup and diesel engine option, this vehicle is for the true SuperDuty truck seeker. With a maximum payload of 7,070 lbs, a towing capacity of up to 19,000lbs, and passenger room for up to 6 adults, the F-350 is definitely an unrivalled workhorse that will meet all your work and off-roading needs.
